Declan De Barra - Blackbird Song
'It's a lonely aul' world
Somtimes takes all your strength
To raise up your head
And wipe all the tears away
And fall on your chair
And you realise you're on your own
Cos only your blood
Blood won't let you down
Blood won't let you down
Blood won't let you down
Blood won't let you down
Blood won't let us down'

Did you get the bit torrent sorted yet? If so the world is your oyster. i downloaded bitlord last week still not sure about the whole process though. heard somewhere that a lot of the music/films available aren't the proper versions and you don't realise that until you've downloaded them. true or urban legend? also beside all the files is a bar called "health", some green, some red - i presume green means good but waht exactly is it? does it mean the speed with which it can be dowloaded or potential viruses etc? |

I think the above is true but it's never happened to me. I think it tends to happen more on other file sharing systems which are overrun with fake files. Bit torrent seems to do away with most of these issues. I wouldn't think it's a major concern.
Health reflects the number of people who are seeding the entire file. A file with red health is unlikely to be available because nobody is seeding the whole thing. Look for full health files first anyway.

It depends what site you are looking for the torrents on but the ratio should be on the main page where you see the list of torrents in the first place. Here is an example from torrentspy that I found on the web:  S refers to seeders and D to downloaders. In an ideal world you want more people seeding (sharing) than downloading. |

Two Gallants - The Throes
Well I don’t know if I can take this anymore,
She’s thinking as he shoves (her) against the wall,
Screaming “well then what good are you for,
you don’t give me no pleasure at all”
oh now I know I need to leave so she tells herself again,
wipes a little blood upon her sleeve,
but she don’t tell herself when.
And the baby starts a-crying,
Daddy sits back down,
Sinks another drink to bring his temper down.
And it’s in each they’re reflecting on the tv screen,
It reminds her of a better day,
She thought she’d seen.
But now take your time before you grieve,
And keep your heart held off your sleeve,
Cos ain’t no-one but you deceived,
Your sympathy is soon to leave.
And now hide your mouth before you speak,
Better yet just turn a cheek,
Watch your interest growing weak,
But still you say that I’m the freak,
And I guess that’s fine with me.
But he’s probably had a long, long day,
She’s thinking in the kitchen while she weeps,
Putting dinner’s left-overs away,
As he stumbles off to bed and then to sleep.
And surely he’ll be better come the dawn,
When I rise to cook him breakfast ‘fore he goes,
Wakes without a word and then he’s gone,
He’s got that kinda love that never shows.
And baby starts a-wailing and daddy comes back out,
“shut up that child” she hears him shout,
and cradled in her arms she tries to calm the sound.
“how am I to sleep” he screams and slaps her down.
But now take your time before you grieve,
And keep your heart held off your sleeve,
Cos ain’t no-one but you deceived,
Your sympathy is soon to leave.
And now hide your mouth before you speak,
Better yet just turn a cheek,
Watch your interest growing weak,
But still you say that I’m the freak,
And I guess that’s fine with me.
When she wakes her head don’t cease to pain
Bodies broken and her clothes all torn away,
Still the threat of emptiness remains,
As she struggles to her feet to get away,
“help, where has my child gone” she screams
as she runs from room to room,
every sound of silence lingers on,
not a single kick inside her womb.
And her mind drowns in the shadows,
Mama falls back down,
Where the walls that shape her world seem taller from the ground
And no more breath to scream, her throat just drips away,
And no more life to lose as if there were to save.
But now take your time before you grieve,
And keep your heart held off your sleeve,
Cos ain’t no-one but you deceived,
Your sympathy is soon to leave.
And now hide your mouth before you speak,
Better yet just turn a cheek,
Watch your interest growing weak,
But still you say that I’m the freak,
And I guess that’s fine with me.

Scatman's World - Scatman
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
Everybody's talkin' something very shockin' just to
Keep on blockin' what they're feelin' inside but
Listen to me brother, you just keep on walkin' 'cause
You and me and sister ain't got nothin' to hide.
Scatman, fat man, black and white and brown man
Tell me 'bout the colour of your soul.
If part of your solution isn't ending the pollution
Then I don't want to hear your stories told.
I want to welcome you to Scatman's world
(Scatting)
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
Everybody's born to compete as he chooses
But how can someone win if winning means that someone loses.
I sit and see and wonder what it's like to be in touch.
No wonder all my brothers and my sisters need a crutch.
I want to be a human being not a human doing.
I couldn't keep that pace up if I tried.
The source of my intention really isn't crime prevention.
My intention is prevention of the lie,
Yeah, welcome to the Scatman's world
(Scatting)
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
(Scatting)
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
(Scatting in background)
Listen to me
I'm calling out from Scatland
I'm calling out from Scatman's world.
If you wanna break free you better listen to me.
You got to learn how to see in your fantasy.
(Scatting)
my favourite line is "Scatman, fat man, black and white and brown man".
you just don't get lyrics like that these days.....
